a lot of democrats who consider ourselves to be fiscally responsible is of course, you had the bush tax cuts. then right after, you had the attacks on september 11th and you had the war on afghanistan, which i supported and almost all of the members of congress did, because those were the people that attacked us. but then, you had the war in iraq and both afghanistan and iraq were fought as quote emergencies, which means they weren't included in the annual deficits. so, now, when they're talking about a budget that cuts student loan programs for gi members, people coming back from iraq and afghanistan now they're not getting their student loans. because this was all fought off budget. i think that's political malpractice on the part of the republican party. they should have budgeted for this. >> well, from a congressional physician of the soul like diana degette, thank you so much. now to dr. james peterson, msnbc analyst and director of africana studies. professor, millions oppose the war, but as you know, and i'm sure you remember, their voices were significantly marginalized. give us

the richest industry in the world does not need our tax subsidies. there's still a lot of subsidies going for american corporations when they offshore jobs. >> but the republicans haven't identified any of them yet, have they? >> well, they're not willing to talk about it other than loose generalized, terms. you need to get down to the nitty-gritty. they don't do that. but there's many out there that the taxpayers are giving away to very wealthy corporations and individuals not necessarily toward the growing of the economy. there are things that can be done to rein in those loopholes and we need to do it. whether that gives us the money we need to lower the corporate tax rate as we've closed those loopholes, that's a discussion that needs to be taking place. >> tim, what do you think? >> well, we had a budget mark-up last night. we were in until about 11:30 in the evening marking up the paul ryan budget. there was an amendment that said we need to protect the mortgage tax deduction for middle class people. and every republican voted against that demo

people to vote for them, then they need to advocate for good paying jobs with health care and for a fair tax wage. but if they did something like that, you know that would make them democrats. >> in light of what senator turner has already indicated here, the rnc outreach is a $10 million and evangelical thrust there. it's not the money, it's the message at issue here as senator turner has said, isn't it. >> i think it's more than just the message. ultimately, what they're saying is we want to win at any cost and we're just going to tell you what you want to hear. and it's more about showing us. and i think michael steele said it best when he said you can go into the communities, but it's not just about showing up. you can show up anytime but it's about what you do. and their actions are not measuring up. they're saying one thing and doing another. so it's more than telling us who you are, it's about showing us. they're wanting to disenfranchise black and latino voters. they are the party of the rich, and that's not what we are about. so it's really more about show me rather than tell me. >>
